I&T manual only goes so far. Basically, it just says, "Remove everything that needs to be removed to split the tractor, then split it." Not for the mechanically challenged.

A typical "split" is done at the bell housing, to separate the engine from the rest of the drivetrain. You'd split it here to replace the clutch, or overhaul the engine. You'd probably want to split it here even if you do split the tractor again behind the transmission (can you even do that on a regular Super M?). The smaller pieces will be easier to handle.

Really, where you split it depends on what you want to do.

I agree with the post above, get a service manuel or at least IT manuel. I made split stands from metal on an old cultivator. If you have a cement floor to work on yo can support the front with split stands and use a large, 3 ton, floor jack, chained to the tractor, to hold the back up and roll it apart. If you have a loader available you can support the back with heavy blocks, block wheels and roll the front off. Problem is a wide front needs to have blocks put on axles so the motor and front end doesn't try to lay down. Narrow front needs some method to keep it upright. I use 5/8 inch, long bolts with the heads cut off, screwed into the front part as dowels to line it up going back together.

You need to buy a good shop manual from I & T or Binder books. They give you all the details as to what needs to be removed and where to split the tractor.

This tractor is very heavy and you need to make
sure you have the equipment to withstand the weight. You do not want to injure yourself or damage your tractor. Hal
